Smoothie D’s

derek im interested since you have started this with small savings and now on store #3 has this work to build this store succesful. im just a curious college student thats interested in people that make their bussiness over a franchise

This place just popped up a few months ago, I thought it could end up being a staple in my diet. Been here 3x now — — it’s okay, they could really do so much better.
It’s geared towards the gym rats, tons of amino acids and weight gain supplements. The guys who work here could probably help supplement your car jack if you ever needed some help lifting your car to fix a flat.
They have tons of smoothies and shakes, aka «meal supplements». There’s so many to choose from you could literally stand there for an hour just mulling over the choices. Why some may think that’s a good thing it can also be a drawback if the information is not organize well because you can easily get lost in their 40+ choices listed, and it could make it more difficult to make your decision.
Also — they are short on salesmanship, I should offer a lesson of sorts to help them out. I have to ask what’s popular, it’s usually the Peanut Butter and Chocolate Shake (which has real peanut butter). But twice I’ve been there and twice they’ve run out of peanut butter. I’m like — WTF? That’s your top seller and you’re out of peanut butter? Again? I’d say send someone to HEB ASAP and get a damn jar of PB so you can make some sales! Or — how about this concept — let’s keep an inventory of peanut butter in the back? Hmmm… now that’s a thought.
There’s a drive-​thru as well, not a lot of traffic here, so that’s why I think these little things could help give them a boost. I’d say they are premium priced for what they offer (a small scoop of powder + ice + water + add ins) for about $ 4 – 5 per shake, but they’re basically the only one in town that I know of that offers such shakes — so that kinda gives them some free reign.
Maybe next time I’ll show up with a jar of peanut butter — just in case!
